Description

[Detailed description of the invention] Purpose of the invention (industrial field of application) This invention consists of a pair of clamping members that can be opened and closed for clamping two pieces of fabric that make up the rain cover of a suit, for example, and a pair of clamping members that can be opened and closed. A fabric holder for a sewing machine, which is equipped with a core member disposed between two workpiece cloths between the members, and is capable of sewing along the outer shape of the core member while one workpiece cloth is inflated relative to the other workpiece cloth. It is related to the device.

(Prior Art) In conventional cloth holding devices of this type, as shown in, for example, Japanese Utility Model Application Publication No. 55-119074, the thickness of the core member is formed to have the same dimensions throughout including the corner portions. One of the workpiece cloths is sewn to the other workpiece cloth in a state in which the entire outer shape of the core member is inflated by the same amount.

(Problem to be solved by the invention) However, as shown in FIG. When the core member is turned over, the front side work cloth W2 is pulled inward and the amount of curling is reduced in the portion corresponding to the corner portion of the core member, so that the corner portion of the back side work cloth W2 is There was a problem that the work cloth W1 was exposed to the outside than the cloth W1, and dents were formed on the surface near the corners of the front work cloth W1, thereby detracting from its commercial value as a rain cover.

Structure of the device (Means for solving the problem) This device was created by focusing on the above-mentioned problem, and involves forming the corner part of the core member thicker than the other parts. This is what I did.

(Function) Therefore, according to the cloth holding device of this invention, the amount of expansion of one work cloth relative to the other work cloth is
Both workpiece fabrics are sewn together with the part corresponding to the corner part of the core member being larger than the other parts, and when the workpiece fabric is turned over after sewing, the workpiece fabric on the back side becomes larger. It is possible to reliably prevent the corner portion from being exposed to the outside of the front work cloth and from creating a dent on the surface of the front work cloth near the corner portion.

(Example) An example of a cloth holding device for a sewing machine embodying this invention will be described below with reference to the drawings.

As shown in FIGS. 1 to 4, the lower clamping member 1 is formed by bending a metal plate into a stepped shape so that the base end side is higher, and the upper surface of the base end has a pair of frontal shapes approximately U-shaped.

Therefore, the work cloths W1 and W2 are pressed in a dispersed manner at intervals, and even in the vicinity of the corners of the core member 20, a certain amount of movement of the work cloths W1 and W2 is allowed. There is no possibility of local distortion or wrinkles occurring in W1, and even a patterned work cloth can be sewn without causing pattern deformation. In this embodiment, the uneven portions 23a and 24a of the pair of protruding walls 23 and 24 are formed alternately on the outside and inside of the core member 20, so that the inflated work cloth W
Local distortion of 1 can be more reliably prevented.

Furthermore, in this embodiment, since the presser member 30 is arranged movably up and down with a predetermined sewing gap 32 on the outside of the clamping members 1 and 5, the clamping member 30 can be held between the clamping members 1 and 5. Processed cloth W1, W2
Since the free end of the workpiece cloth W1 is pressed only from above by the pressing member 30 independently of opening and closing of the upper clamping member 5, first, the lower clamping member 1 and the upper clamping member 5
If the work cloths W1 and W2 are clamped and then the free ends of the work cloths W1 and W2 are pressed by the presser member 30, the work cloths W1 and W2 are
No unreasonable force is applied to the work cloths W1, W.
It is possible to prevent the occurrence of wrinkles and distortions as described in No. 2, and to prevent the work cloths W1 and W2 from lifting during sewing. Therefore, the thickness of the core member 20 can be freely set to ensure a large amount of curling of the work cloth.

It should be noted that this invention is not limited to the configuration of the above-mentioned embodiments, and it is also possible to embody the invention by changing the configuration of each part arbitrarily within a range that does not depart from the spirit of this invention.

Effects of the invention As detailed above, this invention has a state in which the amount of expansion of one work cloth relative to the other work cloth is larger in the portions corresponding to the corner portions of the core member than in other portions. When both fabrics are sewn and the fabric is turned over after sewing, the corners of the fabric on the back side may be exposed to the outside of the fabric on the front side, or the corners of the fabric on the front side may be exposed. This has an excellent effect of reliably preventing the formation of dents on the surface of the substrate.
